SLS 3: Investigating the anti-inflammatory effects of artemisinin compounds on macrophages under systemic inflammatory conditions

University of Westminster School of Life Sciences

Artemisinin compounds are safe and effective antimalarials. Recent evidence in our lab has shown these compounds also exert a potent anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting neutrophil migration and the release of cytokines, chemokines and neutrophil extracellular traps. Read more
